Onomastics and Standardization: Conclusions of a round table discussion  

This paper summarizes the main thoughts of a round table discussion organized on 11th June, 2013 as a separate session of the workshop entitled “Onomastics and Standardization”. The discussion dealt with some major issues of geographical names standardization focusing on three basic questions: in which fields does geographical names standardization prove to be extremely useful; what can be said about the relations between Hungarian and international standardization endeavours, and to what extent it is possible to use the international guidelines in Hungarian standardization practices; and what are the most important current tasks and challenges facing the Hungarian Committee on Geographical Names.
